MCQ
The function $\text{f(x)}=\begin{cases}\frac{\sin3\text{x}}{\text{x}},&\text{x}\ne0\\\frac{\text{k}}{2},&\text{x}=0\end{cases}$ is continuous at x = 0, then k =
  • A
    3
  • 6
  • C
    9
  • D
    12

Answer

Correct option: B.
6
Given, $\text{f(x)}=\begin{cases}\frac{\sin3\text{x}}{\text{x}},&\text{x}\ne0\\\frac{\text{k}}{2},&\text{x}=0\end{cases}$

If f(x) is continuous at x = 0, then

$\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\text{f(x)}=\text{f}(0)$

$\Rightarrow\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{\sin3\text{x}}{\text{x}}=\text{f}(0)$

$\Rightarrow3\lim\limits_{\text{x}\rightarrow0}\frac{\sin3\text{x}}{3\text{x}}=\frac{\text{k}}{2}$

$\Rightarrow3\times1=\frac{\text{k}}{2}$

$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{k}}{2}=3$

$\Rightarrow\text{k}=6$
